A few weeks ago I was ar2 for a youth cup final (u13) Game went to penalties and upwent the first taker when me and a couple others on the halfway line noticed a sub was taking a penalty. Naturally, I delayed the taking off the penalty and walked over to the ref to inform him of this. Informed...

My local youth league appoints refs to youth games to u11 and above, but with the no heading rule may avoid taking u11 games (I already tend to leave them as hate standard of football and feel like you learn nothing from them nor challenge yourself)

My bad if it’s already been mentioned but does anyone know was age group the ban goes up to.

Also, after I had shown them there was only one foul throw and with that foul throw I decided to give him an extra chance instead of reverse play as now I had shown them I felt like it was important that he managed to get at least one right so he had the confidence but also the correct technique

Showed them early on in the second half, it was div 1 was hoping their managers would give them a little help at half time. I was actually going to show them without being asked next time there was a foul throw but chose not to that time as foul throw was right in front of the beaches where it...

Disagreee with the idea, my local youth league start getting refs at u11 and it’s already shocking how many foul throws there are. When they are this young (11 years old) I tend to only blow my whistle for foul throws were feet come off the ground majorly or no movement behind the head ( if...

Don’t like the white design, much prefer the grey or volt colour we have had in the past. White just makes it look so dull

That to me seem an awful procedure. That’s just asking for a player to walk away without giving u their name. Name,explain,further action (if necessary), card. that’s what I use.

Some players just have moaning and complaining naturally in them. Yesterday I had an example, manager was moaning abt everything that he could, it was getting annoying but he never took it over the line and everything he appealed for he had the right to bare one or two things that I let slide as...

when I had this problem I did two things and eventually I started getting appointed games instead of having to get them off the find games section on YesRef. Note: my CFA do appointments instead of league First; Talk to referees or mentors you know and let them know your not getting appointed...

That guy I was talking abt has been at level 3 for 7 years I think he said due to his army commitment

I knew you had to be committed, but I didn’t realise you had to do that much, I guess if your part of the army fa there’s a little more leeway and that how the person I knows got round it. I can see why you have to be committed though as at grassroots level there’s no competition between refs...

I know someone who was in the army, they were level 3. Of course it is slightly different in that case as there is the army fa but it does show you can get to that level without full commitment to it every weekend. IMO as long as you are doing 2/3 games in level 4 ref league standard, whether...

Never done it my self, but plenty of tutorials on YouTube. But please do be aware that sometimes it can leave a slight outline where the print has been so in some cases may not be perfect.

Treat them like your regular ar’s. At the end of the day they are referees themself and roughly know what they want from a assistant. The only thing I would do slightly differently is be more clear with your instructions and maybe use an example so they understand how you want this applied

If you haven’t heard what has been said you cannot take action via a caution or dismissal. However if it is discriminatory you should delay the restart of play and speak to the player that has reported it and get them to tell you what has been said, you then report this to your CFA in a...

@a_lightning (forgot to reply, so will @ you so u see) On whole game click league and cups then type in Junior Premier and it should come up, I’ve attached a picture of what I done to get it up for your reference

Yes, this is what happened when I reported misconduct, I was just unsure whether the ref labelled it as that

Did the referee say it was that charge? Or did the county fa come up with the charge? If it’s the county fa that came up with the charge, it was a unfair hearing but if the referee said it was that charge there’s not much you can do. It’s like calling murder, assault it leads to the wrong...
